I assure you, it is direct-drive!

"The 238 capstan is a precision direct-drive design controlled
by an FG servo system that guarantees
unvarying speed and torque stability at the
238's 9.5 cm/second (3-3/4 ips)tape speed"

Ah well the 238 is a direct drive machine...! The problem with mine being that it seems to take a long time for the machine to get to a level speed, for the first while its slow, then it speeds up over (quite a long) time and I have no idea if it eventually levels out to being the correct 9.5cm/s......

Darn it....so replaced the possible problem CAPS and it the jet-noise went and it appeared to playing normally,now five minutes in and it's playing a little too fast,
not crazily like before........any one have any ideas?

Hoorah!
I can't wait til this thing works.....

Has anyone ever had the desire or inclination to balanced the inputs? Surely that'd be nice/possible?

But of course, it's making the jet engine noise and playing like a chipmunk I'd like to...

Yes, I did wonder if Melodyne would do the trick - but unsurprisingly, I was looking for a cheap-route

Hi people, I'm wondering if anyone knows of a plug-in or software that can tell you what notes are in a chord or melody from an audio file, aiff, wav or what-have-you. I created a faux orchestral thing and would love to now go back and work out what that hell it was that I played, with a mind to get...
